Call the narrative "response to comment XXX" or something and upload it to the credit section along with the new template, submitals, etc. I have found that more documentation is more likely to be approved.<br><br><br><br><o:p></o:p></p><pre>Robert Wichert P.Eng.

I have search LEED online, GBCI and other online sites for answers unsuccessfully, they do have some great, user-friendly websites.
